The year 2022 ended with a number of new state troopers starting their patrols in Virginia.  Governor Glenn Youngkin welcomed the next generation of Virginia State Police troopers, during the commencement exercises Friday afternoon at the Virginia State Police Academy in North Chesterfield. Youngkin personally presented each of the 34 graduates with their uniform pin.

He said the pin is a symbol of their commitment to Virginia and he called it an honor to meet the men and women.

Two of the graduates were Samuel William Good the Third and Garrison Douglas Wright, both of whom have been assigned to patrol Rockingham County.
